minus-square@UsernameHerelink2•2 hours ago Because of citizens united, money decides election wins. So how do we win without donors? This was the question that you are avoiding. To overhaul campaign funding they need to win. For that to happen they need donors. Also, just because a saying exists doesn’t make it right.

If, as you say, donation money decides elections then the democrats, having gotten and spent more, should have won. So, did money decide this election win?
